In this episode of Pivot to Profit, Pam Jordan sits down with Gina Micheletti — founder of Slay Bae Beauty Co., salon owner, educator, and bold-as-hell entrepreneur who went from bartending on Broadway in Nashville to building a booming beauty brand.

Gina pulls back the curtain on the real, raw, and often messy journey of scaling a salon — from signing a lease she had to pay $25K to escape, to hiring (and then downsizing) a full team of stylists, to navigating a whirlwind reality TV wedding that exploded her online presence overnight.

Pam and Gina dive deep into what it actually takes to grow a beauty business without going broke (or breaking down), and how to shift from stylist to CEO — with boundaries, business smarts, and a brand that’s built to last.

You’ll learn:

– What no one tells you about commercial leases and buildouts — and how to avoid expensive rookie mistakes

– Why “more” stylists doesn’t always mean more profit

– The mindset shift that helped Gina stop being “just a stylist” and step fully into leadership

– How going viral on reality TV transformed her social media and brand strategy

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

• Data without action is worthless. Clarity comes from knowing what to do next.

• Marketing ROI starts with vision. If you don’t know your end goal, your spend is wasted.

• Most businesses miss two key elements: sending signals back to ad platforms and measuring short-term value velocity.

• Profit per employee is one of the most powerful (and overlooked) efficiency metrics.

• Growth at all costs can bankrupt you—clarity and profitability must scale together.

From a single-parent household in Vermont to leading troops in Iraq, Jeff’s early life taught him resilience, discipline, and the value of starting over. After leaving the corporate world—frustrated by its misaligned values—he and his wife, Michelle, embraced a nomadic life through Costa Rica, Mexico, and Nicaragua. That freedom gave them the confidence to launch Glow Natural Wellness, bootstrapping through years of struggle until the breakthrough niche of virtual hormone replacement therapy for women propelled the company to back-to-back Inc. 5000 honors and a 55-person team.

With Glow thriving under Michelle’s leadership, Jeff now focuses on Glow Investment Group, where he acquires and optimizes profitable, values-aligned businesses, particularly in health and wellness. His approach blends operational improvements, cross-promotion, and strategic use of other people’s capital to drive impact and profitability.

Pam and Jeff explore:

• How growing up with a scarcity mindset shaped his views on money and risk

• The transition from Marine Corps officer to entrepreneur and why integrity matters more than titles

• Building a company around passion, service, and an underserved market for exponential growth

• Why “other people’s capital” is a powerful tool for scaling without overleveraging yourself

• Turning profit into impact—from supporting global entrepreneurs to funding charitable projects in Peru

• The systems and leadership shifts that free you from the operator’s seat so you can focus on high-value growth

If you want to build a profitable business that aligns with your values, creates freedom, and fuels lasting impact, this episode is your playbook.

✖️✖️✖️

In this episode of Pivot to Profit, Pam Jordan sits down with Dr. Laura Gallaher — organizational psychologist, executive coach, and the mind behind NASA’s post-tragedy cultural transformation — for a profound and energizing conversation on radical self-acceptance, leadership, and stress resilience for high performers.

Laura shares how her upbringing shaped her financial beliefs, how a pivotal 360° feedback moment at NASA cracked open a journey of personal reinvention, and why she believes stress is a choice — just not in the way most people think. If you’ve ever felt like success comes at the cost of your peace, this episode will challenge and uplift you.

Pam and Laura dive into:

– How her parents’ values of modesty and frugality shaped her early views of money — and how that evolved into seeing money as energetic fuel

– From NASA to entrepreneurship: why more autonomy, not more accolades, drove her decision to leave

– The wake-up moment of being called an “intellectual bully” — and how she used that to shift her leadership and self-awareness

– Her powerful philosophy of radical self-acceptance: growing from love, not shame

– Why stress isn’t something that happens to you — but rather stems from the stories we tell ourselves

– How Gallaher Edge is helping high achievers detox from burnout while maintaining their ambition

– A free tool you can use today: the Self-Acceptance Quiz to uncover the balance between growth and grace

If you’re constantly chasing the next win but feel emotionally drained, this conversation is your permission slip to pursue success without self-sacrifice.

In this episode of Pivot to Profit, Pam Jordan sits down with Barbara Schreihans—founder and CEO of Your Tax Coach, creator of the Write Your Life course, host of the Life Changing Money podcast, tax strategist, business coach, and powerhouse real estate investor. Barbara shares her inspiring story: from a childhood shaped by scarcity and gambling addiction to building a multi-million-dollar firm helping business owners and high net worth families save (and make) more money—while creating lasting generational wealth.

Pam and Barbara dig into:

– Early money lessons centered on scarcity, and breaking cycles to believe “the more you have, the more good you can do”

– Why she chose accounting out of pure practicality, her fast-tracked college journey, and how her drive for stability shaped her career moves

– How a broken promise (and missed commission check) inspired her to launch Your Tax Coach and rewrite the rules for tax strategy, transparency, and client education

– The common mistakes she sees business owners and high-net-worth clients making—especially the surprising truth that the more money people make, the less they often know about their real profit or investments

– Why “knowing your numbers” is the non-negotiable foundation for growth, profit, investing, and protecting your wealth

– Tactical tax-saving tips for business owners, W-2 earners, and real estate investors—breaking down cost segregation, self-rental elections, and maximizing real estate depreciation

– The powerful legacy and freedom real estate investing can create (and real-world strategies for using it to pay less tax and build generational options)

– The truth about newsletters, marketing, and building a business without mentors—“sometimes you just need to tell people you exist!”

– Creating Wildly Wealthy retreats: building real in-person community for women, entrepreneurs, and aspiring legacy-builders beyond the numbers

– Her vision for the future—helping more families build their “dream day every day,” living and working around her three kids, and becoming the kind of leader who helps others create real wealth and impact

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

– Scarcity mindset is common but not destiny: You can rewrite your money story and use wealth for good.

– Don’t delegate and forget your finances: It’s your name—and your house—on the line, not your bookkeeper’s or advisor’s.

– Real estate is a powerful tax and wealth-building play: Leverage cost segregation and self-rental strategies (with the right advisor) to keep, grow, and protect your money.

– Invest before you’re ready—and keep your budget tight: Barbara’s journey proves that practical choices and a willingness to ask for help (and get the right team) are key to success.

– Systems and marketing really are everything: Sometimes business growth comes down to telling people you exist—and staying visible.

– Legacy and daily joy are the real goals: Build a business that supports your family, your values, and your dream days—however you define them.

– Celebrate every milestone: Whether it’s your first ten tax prep clients or crossing 600 doors in real estate, every win matters for mindset and momentum.

Remember: It’s not what you make—it’s what you keep (and what you use to build a life and legacy you love)!

– Why owning your organization’s culture is non-negotiable—and what happens when you let someone else write it for you

– How internal communications—often ignored—drive retention, morale, and bottom-line profit, with client case studies showing up to 94% engagement and tangible results (from new council signups to decreased turnover)

– The evolution from running endless, backward-looking financial reports to leveraging leading indicators, projections, and weekly KPIs, with EOS-driven discipline for agile, forward-focused decision-making

– Actionable, relevant KPIs and forward-focused projections drive growth: Stop obsessing over only lagging indicators; weekly tracking, transparency, and leading metrics enable course correction before you’re in trouble.

– Magic sessions align organizations at every level: Bringing every stakeholder into the conversation early creates buy-in, faster execution, and better outcomes for any communication or marketing initiative.

– Financial freedom is about more than money: It’s about maximizing your life’s quality—so you can attend school events, celebrate with family, and build a company that enables, not restricts, your dreams.

– Relationship and gratitude fuel success: Celebrate wins, pay yourself first, and remember to build trusted teams—both on the finance and talent front.

Balance isn’t 50/50—it's presence. Success means being fully engaged wherever you are—at home, at work, with yourself.
Feelings aren’t facts. Pause and investigate guilt or shame before taking action; inquire into what’s really behind them and adjust with intention.
Support beats “self-made.” Asking for help is your greatest strength, not a weakness, and creates ripple effects of impact across your life and business.
Invest before you feel ready—and sooner if you can. Wise investments in yourself, your support team, and your structures pay dividends.
You can—and should—be both. Thriving as a business owner and as a parent is not only possible, but achievable and worth celebrating.

Remember: It’s not what you make—it’s what you keep.

In this episode of Pivot to Profit, Pam Jordan sits down with Makena Zannini—founder of The Boutique COO, operations expert, business strategist, and the woman behind scaling service businesses with structure, clarity, and serious results. Makena shares her unconventional journey from working-class roots and Wall Street to building a seven-figure operations agency that helps entrepreneurs double their revenue. They dig into the real talk behind scaling chaos—why most owners don’t have systems, how “SOP” and “automation” are more than just buzzwords, and what truly breaks as your business grows.

Pam and Makena explore:

Her experience climbing out of limiting money beliefs from childhood—and how mindset shapes every financial decision
Wharton to Wall Street: lessons in analytical thinking, burnout, and the leap to consulting and entrepreneurship
The most common scaling pains for growing businesses (and how to fix them before the back end becomes a disaster)
Why marketing consistency is non-negotiable, and why a “pretty Instagram feed” now matters as much as your website in capturing new leads
Makena’s unique process for operational triage: stopping the bleeding first, then customizing a gameplan for health, scale, and eventual exit
How The Boutique COO and new ventures like Brick by Brick Collective are redefining what support looks like for real estate professionals and beyond

✖️✖️✖️

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

Without systems, scaling is impossible: Most founders wait too long to build processes that support their growth—and pay for it with chaos and missed revenue.
You must celebrate milestones: Mark the wins, big or small—reinforces momentum and gratitude on the entrepreneurial journey.
Don’t buy the “set it and forget it” consultant myth: You need partners who can help you implement, iterate, and customize solutions—not just a glossy report.
Marketing is always on: Set realistic goals, start small, be consistent—and remember your social media presence is now your business “front window.”
Business support should be honest and accessible: Makena’s vision is to empower small business owners as a reliable, BS-free resource for the operational and marketing backbone they actually need.
Track your ROI—and value your own contribution: Setting a high bar for your investments and your worth accelerates profit, impact, and personal satisfaction.

In this episode of Pivot to Profit, Pam Jordan welcomes Chelsea Ryckis—award-winning entrepreneur and president of Ethos Benefits, who is revolutionizing employer-sponsored health insurance. After a career-altering brain injury ended her D1 softball dreams and medical school plans, Chelsea shifted her focus to healthcare financing and set out to break down the barriers and hidden costs in employee benefits.

Pam and Chelsea explore her journey from humble beginnings in Canada to building Ethos Benefits alongside her husband, and the lightbulb moments that shaped their approach to transparent, client-focused advising. Learn why Chelsea refuses to accept the “this is just how it is” mentality in the benefits industry, and how she’s leading change by eliminating commissions, unboxing health plans, and putting fiduciary responsibility at the heart of her business.

Discover how the “open box” approach to health insurance is saving clients six figures annually, what business owners get wrong about claims vs. conditions, and the truth behind insurance company profits. Chelsea also shares her mission for a more honest industry—including her acclaimed documentary It's Not Personal, It's Your Healthcare, her next project lifting the curtain on drug costs, and what it really takes to scale a purpose-driven company while living (and growing) in Puerto Rico.

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

Money mindset is often subconscious: Most financial behaviors are driven by beliefs formed in childhood, often before age 8.
Scarcity and “never enough” mindsets are common—even among high earners: These can lead to controlling, hoarding, or endlessly chasing money, impacting both business and personal relationships.
Your money story is not your destiny: Through techniques like hypnotherapy and subconscious reprogramming, you can identify and rewrite limiting beliefs to unlock new levels of abundance and fulfillment.
Money is a tool, not a goal: Entrepreneurs who see money as a means to create impact, support others, and enjoy life tend to build more sustainable wealth and satisfaction.
Holistic success matters: True financial freedom means living fully each day, enjoying relationships, and using money to amplify your purpose—not just accumulating more.
Generational impact: Unhealed money wounds can be unconsciously passed down. Healing your mindset empowers the next generation to thrive.

Remember: It’s not what you make—it’s what you keep. Clear your money blocks, align your mindset, and let your numbers work for you!

✖️✖️✖️

In this episode of Pivot to Profit, Pam Jordan and tax expert Alexis Sidney reveal the truth about expenses that get “backed out” of your tax return—and why so many entrepreneurs are blindsided at tax time. Just because an expense appears on your P&L doesn’t mean the IRS will let you deduct it! Pam and Alexis break down what “backed out” really means, the most common culprits (from personal spending and meals to charitable contributions and IRS penalties), and how your entity type changes what’s allowed. Learn why coding matters, how to avoid painful surprises, and what every business owner must know to keep more of their hard-earned money. Hear real-life stories of costly mistakes, get practical tips for working with your bookkeeper and tax strategist, and discover how to make sure your business isn’t accidentally inflating its deductions.

✖️✖️✖️

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

– Not all expenses on your P&L are deductible: The IRS requires certain items—like personal spending, charitable contributions (for most entities), IRS penalties, political donations, and some meals—to be “backed out” before calculating your taxable income.

– Entity type matters: Whether you’re an LLC, S corp, or C corp changes what’s allowed as a business deduction.

– Personal expenses are not business write-offs: Swiping your company card for shopping, nails, or personal errands can cost you at tax time.

– Charitable contributions are often misunderstood: Unless you’re a C corp, most charitable donations must be backed out and handled on your personal return.

– Meals, vehicles, and travel require careful coding: Only certain meals are deductible (and often only 50%), and vehicle expenses must be tracked by business use percentage.

– IRS bills and penalties are never business expenses: Don’t let these sneak onto your P&L.

– Good bookkeeping is essential: Work closely with your bookkeeper and tax strategist to ensure expenses are coded correctly based on your entity type.

– Understand the difference between book profit and taxable profit: What you see on your P&L isn’t always what you’ll be taxed on.

– Plan ahead to avoid surprises: Knowing what gets backed out helps you make better business decisions and avoid unexpected tax bills.

– Your business is not your personal piggy bank: Keep personal and business expenses separate to protect your deductions and make tax time easier.

Remember: It’s not what you make—it’s what you keep. Get clarity on your numbers and work with the right experts to keep more of your hard-earned money!

Depreciation Secrets: Save More on Taxes This Year

Visit pamjordan.com to schedule a call with our team.

✖️✖️✖️

In this episode of Pivot to Profit, Pam Jordan and tax expert Alexis Sidney tackle the confusing world of depreciation—what Pam calls “monopoly money” for business owners. If you’ve ever wondered why a new truck or piece of equipment doesn’t show up as a full deduction on your profit and loss, this episode is for you. Pam and Alexis break down what depreciation really is, why it matters, and how it can be a powerful (but misunderstood) tax-saving tool for entrepreneurs. Learn the difference between assets and expenses, how to track depreciation, and which method—straight line, bonus, Section 179, or accelerated—makes sense for your business. They also discuss the IRS rules for capitalizing assets, the pitfalls of missing depreciation, and the crucial topic of depreciation recapture when you sell an asset. Hear real-life examples, practical strategies, and why keeping an asset tracker could save you thousands in taxes and headaches down the road.

✖️✖️✖️

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

Depreciation lets you write off big purchases over time: Assets like vehicles, equipment, and property are deducted gradually, not all at once.
Bonus and Section 179 depreciation can provide huge upfront deductions: These methods can save you thousands in a profitable year, but strategy matters.
Track your assets: Anything over $2,500 must be capitalized and tracked for depreciation—don’t just expense it!
Depreciation isn’t “real” money leaving your bank: It’s a non-cash accounting entry that reduces taxable income but doesn’t affect cash flow directly.
Missing depreciation (or not tracking it) can hurt your business valuation and trigger IRS headaches.
Depreciation recapture is real: When you sell an asset, the IRS may “recapture” depreciation, increasing your tax bill—plan ahead!
Work with a tax strategist: The right method and timing can make a major difference in your tax savings and business strategy.

Remember: Depreciation is a powerful tool when used correctly. It’s not what you make—it’s what you keep!

Want to know if your business is maximizing every legitimate deduction, or have questions about meals and entertainment rules? Let us know what you’d like to explore next!

✖️✖️✖️

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

– Not all meals are created equal: Employee events and holiday parties are 100% deductible, while client meals and travel meals are usually only 50% deductible.

– Personal meals and everyday lunches aren’t business expenses: Swiping your company card for solo meals or routine coffee runs is a red flag.

– Entertainment is no longer deductible: Since 2018, golf outings, shows, and similar entertainment with clients can’t be written off—even if food is served.

– Documentation is crucial: Keep detailed records—who you met, when, where, and what was discussed. Use your calendar and attach receipts to transactions.

– Be reasonable and avoid “lavish” expenses: The IRS doesn’t define a dollar limit, but excessive spending out of proportion to your business can trigger audits.

– Accurate bookkeeping matters: Separate 100% and 50% deductible meals in your chart of accounts, or risk losing deductions at tax time.

– Watch out for common mistakes: DoorDash, Uber Eats, and family dinners are often misclassified—don’t let convenience cost you.

Remember: It’s not what you make, it’s what you keep. Get smart about your meals and entertainment deductions to keep more money in your business!
